Great to have you back :-) On 17 Apr 2014 21:48, "Milos Rancic" millosh@gmail.com wrote:

For those who care, I'm back.

My absence wasn't related to Wikimedia. It was about first world problems, which hit me quite hard. I never thought that the transition from the second to the first world problems would be painful. Few years ago I'd have called it "decadence".

So, lesson learned.

Anyway, I thought that I would see something completely different here and was worried a bit about my ability to adapt. But, I see that everything is as it was. Good old heated debates. And known [virtual] faces :D

I feel I am home again :)

Welcome back Millosh! Luckily I feel like you never left, because your FB commentary is often so interesting :P

Hoi, Interested in your old haunts at the language committee ? Any way, wb ! Thanks, Gerard

Thank to all for welcome :)

I am good. It was nothing which good introspection, some formal education and rational thinking wasn't able to solve. Besides that, I was better at the time when I decided to leave Wikimedia for a while. That was the product of rational decision.

Andy, Serbian beer is like English wine: it exists, it's consisted of ethanol -- among the other things --, you can drink it without serious consequences to your health, but it's not for hoarding :P Rakija is the right Serbian product. Do you remember drinking it in Pristina? Or not? :P

David, yes, I thought the same :) Just didn't know when.

Nathan, the fact that I stopped contributing to this list doesn't mean that I suddenly stopped being attention whore ;)

And now it's time for plans. Although I am willing to do everything, I have to limit my enthusiasm not to be overwhelmed again. So, small steps:

* I'm de facto in charge for Wikimedia Serbia microgrant projects. Searching for new Wikimedians locally. * Coming back to the Language committee. There are 3000 languages which Wikimedia could save.
